What is going to say? Good or bad? I suspect if CBS is behind it, he will probably come up with something negative about OSteen. I mean for one thing, his message is all Anthony Robbins. I don’t recall hearing or reading anything from Osteen that expresses his views. To what extent is his ministry devoted to being born again?

My understanding is, the CBS guy ended up asking JO "Where's the Jesus in this?"

Linky to CBS's story.

Exactly. I actually like Osteen’s shows. He’s a remarkable speaker, but there really is NO Jesus in his message. The 60 minutes in I recall showed him skirting the issues.

The pontifications epidemic continues.

Is it a continuation via your pronouncement or by something Gamecock did?

60 minutes, ha ha ha. Haven’t watched them for so many years, lost count. You’d have to hold a gun to my head. Fat little Timmy Russert too, man, makes me want to hurl, for the brief second it takes to flip the channel.

The pontificating naysayers who can’t put up and won’t shut-up

have been pontificatingly throwing rocks at the likes of Joel for a long time.

God is not at all pleased.

Such folks are bringing people into The Kingdom and maturing them IN CHRIST by the thousands . . .

but the naysayers have to cluck and deride and throw rocks . . . whether out of jealousy, haughtiness, self-righteousness, evil critical judgment or whatever . . .

The reaping of such sowing will be exceedingly painful for those involved.

God is Joel’s boss . . . thankfully the rock throwers are not.

***God is not at all pleased.***

a. Have you ever listened to even one episode of the White Horse Inn?

I didn't think so....

b. Are you now a prophet? Did God tell you this are are you just guessing?

How much Jesus do you get, listening to Joel? How much "Dead in sin"?

I'm asking you seriously. These are diagnostic questions. I've never watched Osteen. What I hear about him is that he doesn't get around to the bad news.

By the way, I highlyrecommend that you get yourself over to White Horse Inn's Osteen page and download the "Faith and the Gospel" audio, on the loss of the gospel in the contemporary American evangelical church.

Listen to that. Then let's talk.

IIRC

I was cured some time ago of the delusion that I could have an authentic fruitful dialogue with you about such things.
